Ascent Aviation Services (Ascent) has announced a senior leadership change, appointing Scott Diaz as Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing while confirming the imminent departure of Chief Commercial Officer Scott Butler.
Butler, who has held the CCO role for nearly eight years, is set to leave the business later this month. During his tenure, he was instrumental in shaping and executing Ascent’s commercial strategy, helping to expand its global customer base and reinforce its standing within the aviation services sector. His leadership is widely credited with supporting sustained company growth and broadening the scope and quality of its service offerings.
Taking on an expanded leadership remit, Scott Diaz steps into the role of Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing shortly after joining the company. He brings significant industry experience and a proven ability to drive revenue growth, deepen customer relationships and enhance market engagement—capabilities seen as critical as Ascent continues to scale its commercial operations.
The transition marks a notable shift in Ascent’s executive structure, with a clear emphasis on continuity in commercial performance while positioning the organisation for its next phase of growth.
